ajithlal @ajithlal (14716) • India 17 Jun 08

What was your favorite subject? I like history very much because I like stories and I was very keen to know more about people's culture.

robbknight history is definitely my favorite subject which is why it's my major. one term i had no history classes and mostly all science classes and i was so bored and miserable. school is a lot more enjoyable when i'm taking history classes.

robbknight I think the thing I want to change the most is the outside. It's kind of a lime green and it's makes the house stick out even more, which means a lot because it's already a very noticeable house from the street. Besides that I would either change the living...

robbknight @robbknight (21) • United States 18 Jun 08

In several movies they have shown a character being able to fly to Europe or other places for free by taking a package with them and delivering it once they arrive at their destination. Is this for real and how would one go about...

estherlou @estherlou (5015) • United States 17 Jun 08

I read an article talking about Pelosi being the wealthiest of all of the congressional leaders. The article also tells of many of the others assets. It was an amazing read. Many of them have land or assets of over several million...

robbknight Being wealthy certainly doesn't hurt a person in getting elected. Many politicians have very wealthy spouses or come from very wealthy families that allow them to devote time to politics and allow them to get elected (Cindy McCain gave John McCain quite a...

mollyrose @mollyrose (414) • United States 3 Jan 08

robbknight Does anyone else think that it should come back for a second season? I really liked this show- way better than the Lipstick Jungle on NBC. I think it had a lot of interesting plot twists and well developed characters. I wanted to know what happened next but it...
